Each replay and image from Cincinnati’s Paycor Stadium, beginning with the tackle that caused Bills safety Damar Hamlin to suffer a cardiac arrest on the field Monday night, sent Hockey Hall of Fame defenseman Chris Pronger back to May 10, 1998. Pronger was 23 years old and competing with the St. Louis Blues in the Western Conference semifinals of the Stanley Cup Playoffs when he was struck on the left side of his chest by a slap shot from Detroit Red Wings defenseman Dmitri Mironov.

The generally agreed-upon rule of thumb for comedians who delve into dark comedy is to always try to be more funny and more clever than offensive – the darker you go, the more creative you get to justify tackling the sensitive subject matter. This past weekend, anti-vax comedy icon Jim Breuer bravely defied this simple standard by making the most sophomoric, obvious and distasteful dig on the cardiac arrest suffered by Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin during Monday Night Football on January 2nd. While performing on the “ReAwaken America Tour,” an event branded as a coming together of conservative Christians,...

Did they mention the different possible causes of cardiac arrest? Did they mention how unusual such a situation was, so unusual that the National Football League (NFL) ended up postponing the game as thousands of people watched stunned?...

Buffalo Bills player Damar Hamlin makes a tackle, gets up, and immediately falls down. Every commentator immediately declares that Hamlin’s medical emergency is due to “commotio cordis.” Or so it seems. Any discussion of the possibility of the COVID vaccine’s involvement is “lies.”I serve as a medical information resource to an Orlando political talk show called “The American Adversaries.” So, when this very public medical event happened, I became Chris Hart’s on-air guest. His co-host is Mike McBath, a former Detroit Lions player who is still actively involved in player issues. While doing my homework, I found lots of doctors...

Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott thanked a long list of people for going above and beyond since safety Damar Hamlin suffered a cardiac arrest on the field Monday night in Cincinnati, but he had one very important shout-out at the end of the list. “Finally and just as important as anything is glory to God for his keeping Damar and his family in the palm of his hand over the last couple of days and his healing powers,” McDermott said during a Thursday news conference. “The amount of faith, hope and love that we saw on display over the...
